Old cheap test kits with questionable results!!!

[Stanley-Reefer]

Right now my tanks have NEVER looked better. Minimal nuisance algae and all corals with deep rich colors. I admit I hardly ever test anything except salinity after a water change so I was surprised at the results of phosphate and nitrates.

Phosphate 0.2 on a Red Sea kit (would be like 10 on a hanna:lolspin

Nitrates were 25-50:eek1:

Again everthing is happy, has great color and is growing well.

Think the kits are wrong? They are about 3 years old.

I think 3-years old is pretty old for a test kit. It would be interesting to know how high you Phosphate and Nitrate really are.
